Sandro Castro shared an Instagram reel this Sunday where he made clear his opinion on the confrontation between Cuban border guards and a boat with an outboard motor registered in Florida (FL7726SH).
The incident occurred on February 25 in the territorial waters of Villa Clara and made headlines in both national and international press due to taking place during a time of heightened tensions between Cuba and the United States. The altercation resulted in four fatalities and six injuries among the boat's crew members.
Sandro showcased in his video a game of dominoes filled with symbolism, on a dimly lit street in Havana, with no traffic due to the fuel shortage in the country. He addresses one of his friends with the following words:
"Dad, you dive like an outboard motorboat. And you know what... I'm up 4 to 0 in the game, and I'm not talking about baseball." It’s a clear allusion to the maritime confrontation.
The comment did not go unnoticed by readers, and one responded: "4 to 0? And your 32 friends who were swept up in Venezuela?" referencing the Cuban soldiers who died in the U.S. incursion in Caracas to capture Nicolás Maduro.
When does the domino closure arrive in Cuba?
Sandro added, "Domino doesn't get blocked, but it gets heated," suggesting that relations with the United States are in a tense moment, but the Castros do not intend to exit the game.
In the same video, he jokes that he is receiving calls from Marco Rubio but refuses to answer the Secretary of State. "Marquito, you're really on fire this week. I'm not in the mood to talk to you. You're carrying ninja dust, buddy."
The controversial influencer had announced this video since Friday, but with an emphasis on a different perspective, accompanied by a message about "embracing change" in Cuba and suggesting what he would do in response to a possible "call" from Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Now Sandro makes his position clear and once again demonstrates his frivolity when addressing topics of great interest to Cubans, such as the confrontation between the Guardafronteras troops and the boat from Florida, the political dialogue with the United States for change in Cuba, and the fuel crisis affecting the country.
The game of dominoes is not over yet, but the Castros may soon be in for a surprise and find themselves out of pieces.
